2021 Marlins Season Preview: John Curtiss

Opening Day age: 27 | Bats: right | Throws: right | Listed at 6-5, 225 lbs.

Acquired by the Marlins via trade from the Rays (February 17, 2021)

For the journeyman John Curtiss, a man who once proclaimed that “literally no one wanted me,” the abbreviated 2020 season proved fruitful for the 27-year-old right-hander.

The owner of a 6.75 ERA over three brief stints with the Twins and Angels from 2017-19, Curtiss was a member of four organizations before flourishing upon joining the Tampa Bay Rays prior to the start of the season.
